“On Wednesday I will be holding a jalsa in Peshawar after Isha - my first jalsa after being removed through a foreign- instigated regime change. I want all our people to come, as Pakistan was created as an independent, sovereign state not as a puppet state of foreign powers.” Khan said.

He added that he is demanding immediate elections as that is the only way forward to let the people decide, through fair and free elections, whom they want as their prime minister.

Earlier on Monday, Khan announced that his party has decided to resign from the National Assembly, lower house of parliament.
